After the race Mr.. James Bell, the prin-
cipal owner of the Thistle, said he was not
at all satisfied with the result. The Thistle
he declared had never moved 70 slowly
through the water He IVES of the opinion
that there was something wrong with the
cutters bottom" and she would be hauled
out of water tomorrow with view toward
finding out what il was. He did not
consider that q race had been sailed for
that reason and because the wind was 80
shifting. The Volunteer often had the
ADVANTAGE OF A BREEZE
that the Thistle did not feel. Besides the
excursion boats swashed the Thistle to a
damaging extent.
Capt RaTr, OF the Thistle, held the same
views. He said that some of the crew bad
been notified anonymously that the cut
ter's bottom had been 'dOctOred, and the
truth would be certain before Thursday,
the day of the race. Capt Barr said he
had sailed the Thistle every time he had
been out and he never knew her to give so
badly on the wind.
General Pain and Mr.. Edward Burgess,
of the Volunteer, took the victory quietly,
but very happily. Captain Half said that
the reason the Thistle sailed so much faster
than his vessel before the start was that
the Volunteer did not have her centre
board down on account of shallow water
inside buoy Il.

should have doomed forth their signal for
the head OF the column to start.
When the fact of the pOstPonement was
generally known, considerable dissatisiac-
tion was expressed both by the comrades
and visitors, and several of the local pOsts
with bands playing and cOlorS flying,
made parades on their own hook, to
demonstrate their independence OF the
weather. All the arrangements for the
encampment are thrown out OF gear by
the change in plans.
The Governors and eX-GOvernOrs have
reported from time to time, and this morn
ing the following were ready to take the
reviewing stand: Governor Oglesby, OF
Illinois; Governor Rusk, of Wisconsin;
Governor StOneman, of California; Gov
eopor Fletcher, OF Missouri; Governor
Crawford, of Kansas; Governor Evans, cf
Colorado; Governor Sanders, OF Nebraska;
ex- Governor Pierpoint, of Virginia; Gov

ed programme of receptions, luncheons
and dinners has been prepared for their
entertainment during the week.

COOLEY GIVES REASONS.

Judge Cooley, in an Interview, gives
his reasons for the order OF the inter-
state commission in the matter OF the
long and short haul clause of the law, In
SO far as regards the railway system Of
the south and u.hwest. As was anti.
cipated by those who were acquainted
with the judicial impartiality and men
tai grasp Of the chairman of the COM
mission, those reasons are pre-eminent-
ly sound and in full accord with a wise
consideration for the business interests
OF the country. The principal of these
reasons are that the time between the
appointment Of the commission and the
date at which the law went into effect
was SO short that no opportunity was
given tie commission to make itself &C.
quainted with the whole railway situa-
tion OF the country, and especially In its
complications with the waterway COM
petitions Of the south and west. Mr.,
Cooley says that the representations
made Of the hardships that the new law
would entail upon such roads led the
commission to conclude as they did,
that justice required they should
move slowly, and not take final
action without making themselves
